i really wanted to like this book but i just finished it and i have already forgotten half the plot. for what it is it’s too long and lacks substance. idk maybe it would’ve worked better as a short story. 
i did like the characters and there were definitely little details i enjoyed (“boys” turning into dragons as well, the librarian, how the media avoided stories about dragoning, etc.). overall, the concept itself is fun, i just think it could have used another round of editing. felt like an overpriced salad at a fancy bistro like i def could’ve made this at home. :((
